It's soon been three weeks since I posted this and I would really
appreciate some feedback.
Rafael, I need your feedback on patch 1->4.
Mark, Sudeep, Lorenzo, please have a look at the PSCI related changes.
When it comes to the the cpuidle related changes, I have pinged Daniel
offlist - and he is preparing some responses.
Kind regards
Uffe
